EMACS_TP

What was he talking about?

   Emacs strings have 'text-properties'
   (and also 'overlays'): any character can
   have an indefinite number of key-value
   pairs attached to them...

   And text-properties stay attached as
   you manipulate the string.

   Can something like that be implemented in perl?
